"Asshole" lyrics

"Asshole"

And I know what you said to me was wrong
But kindness came and bit my tongue
I must admit, the taste of it is keeping me awake
You did your best to throw me off the scent
Betrayed yourself on accident
I saw it when you lit the filter of your cigarette
And the smoke, it filled your lungs
You left before the sun

First we ever met
You thought I was an asshole
Probably correct
But I can see your shadow

And all the twenty something mannequins
Their hearts are barely broken in
But maybe now I'm just a coward envying the brave
And every time you tried to let me in
Your nails, they barely broke the skin
I must admit, the taste of it is keeping me awake
And we passed out on the rug
And you left before the sun

First we ever met
You thought I was an asshole
Probably correct
But I can see your shadow
Only for the night
Only for the weekend
Pour another wine
Take me to your deep end

First we ever met
Silence, oh, the sinner lost his way
You thought I was an asshole
Probably correct
Living for the love of yesterday
But I can see your shadow
'Cause all alone and all the days
Only for the night
You're giving up, you hid away
Only for the weekend
Pour another wine
Living for the love of yesterday
Take me to your deep end

First we ever met
You thought I was an asshole
Probably correct
But I still feel your shadow
